Team Punto
to race Targa Tasmania with clean, green biodiesel
In an Australian Tarmac Rally first, Team Punto will race its
Fiat Punto Sport Abarth on clean, green biodiesel at this year’s
Targa Tasmania rally, held from April 28 to May 3.
Running the first diesel-powered car at Targa in 2007, Team
Punto will now contest the six-day race using Smorgon Fuels’ BioMax
B20 biodiesel in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint.
Finishing second outright at Targa in the two-wheel drive
Showroom category last year, team driver Phil Buggee said biodiesel
will reduce its CO2 and air pollutant emissions.
“Smorgon Fuels’ BioMax biodiesel is a renewable fuel predominantly
made from used cooking oil, along with animal fats (tallow) and
other oilseeds,” Mr Buggee said.
“While competing in one of the toughest tarmac rallies
in the world, in one of the most pristine environments in the
world, it’s reassuring that we’ll be reducing our CO2
and air pollutant emissions with biodiesel.
“We will be aiming to complete Targa using less than 200
litres of BioMax biodiesel, a fuel which meets Targa Tasmania’s
initiatives of reduction and offsetting,” he said.
BioMax B20 is a blend of 20 per cent biodiesel mixed with
mineral diesel that reduces CO2 emissions by 15 per
cent. It also exceeds the Australian Diesel and Biodiesel Fuel
Standard.
Targa Tasmania 2009, the 18th running of the world-renowned
event, begins with a prologue through the streets of Georgetown on
Tuesday, April 28, with the action proper getting underway the next
day.
While primarily based in Launceston, the event will have an
overnight stop in Strahan on the west coast of the Apple Isle,
before finishing in the capital, Hobart, on Sunday, May 3.
BioMax is available through selected outlets in Melbourne and
regional Victoria, see www.biomaxfuels.com.au for
details.
